Shownotes

The fourth president of the Republic of Estonia, Toomas Hendrik Ilves, joins Giselle, Dalibor, and Iulia to trace the history of post-Soviet Russian aggression from 2008 to today.

President Ilves describes what's different between Russia's 2014 invasion of Crimea and now, what the Eastern Front needs from the West, and how Ukraine is currently serving as Russia's bargaining chip with NATO.
